Cyprus pushed the bank hoilday to thursday. Something went wrong and whatever they were doing just died on the Operating table. I think there is going to major panic starting march 25th.

Anyway, you think this is bad, how about the EUs new plan to BAN any political parties they don't like from even being able to stand for seats in the European parliament - they won't even let you vote for any party they don't like - all nationalist parties by the way.
See my thread here: www.abovetopsecret.com...
It's unbelievable.

You don't think this is a big deal? Excuse me, this is unprecedented! The only time this sort of thing happens is before major wars and great depressions! But this system needs to collapse - it's dead, it doesn't work and people are sick of it. Let it die so we can finally create something that benefits all of us.
Banks Holiday in Cyprus 'till Thursday

The problem with this is the Cyprus government doesn't have the votes to start this robbery.....and everyone knows once the banks are opened everyone is going to cash out. Cyprus owns A LOT of the Greek debt, and once Cyprus goes there goes Greece, then Italy / Spain and the crash begins.
They just destroyed the European Union, might have just destroyed us all.

Just watched RT news....Russia is a heavy investor in the Cypriot banking sector....they are already withdrawing moneys. So answer me this, big Russian companies can and are able to access their moneys and are moving it to "other parts of the world", so how come they can and Joe public can't? Apparently China and Japan are also heavy investors and they are already making noises about removing their 'cash'.
Also, if the billions that are invested are removed....there wont be enough left surely to give Cyprus the levarage it needs to secure its next bailout?....game over?

President Nicos Anastasiades was trying to compel policy makers in Brussels to soften demands
for a tax to be assessed on Cypriot bank deposits, saying European Union leaders used “blackmail”
to get him to agree to those conditions early Saturday in order to receive a bailout package
worth 10 billion euros, or $13 billion.www.nytimes.com...

Some News regarding Cyprus I just heard on the radio.
Apparently they changed the plan to something like this:
No "tax" for deposits under 20.000€, 6.75% for those between 20.000 and 100.000€ and 12.75% for those above 100.000€.
The german government was very swift yesterday to ensure, that "german private savings will not be touched, we will remember our guarantee given 2 years ago". (when the whole crisis started and germany gave the big loans for other countries, the government guaranteed for all private deposits if a bank might crash and that private money won't be touched to save banks)
But... I don't believe them to be honest, they just don't have the power to save private deposits when the Eurocrats in Brussels want the money...
